Small things that pee you off?

[Boogie-Woogie Smurf]

There are enough small things in gaming that pee people off, what are yours?

How games no longer have the instruction manuals with games. The publishing of instruction manuals has stopped, but the price of games has gone up.

Buying a game only to nearly always having to download a huge patch before you can play it.

Game trailers that don't show any of the actual game.

The focus on online gaming and lack of attention of the single player gameplay.

Games sold with one-use codes for extra content, to put people off buying pre-owned.

My boyfriend saying "It's only a game!" when I screamed in anguish at failing a level

Cut scenes before boss fights. And when you die you have to watch them again!!

You've pretty much covered it, 'cept I would change the BF part to my XBL friends for me 😉

Everyone got excited I just got pissed off. Like I'm really going to buy a game that I know nothing about so early? C'mone, if your going to make a trailer show me what the game is actually like.
